She's worth roughly 1 billion now. So I would say 1.2. Unless she is selling the rights to HP or something I have not heard about.

they've had her at $1 bn for the last 3 years.  Since her movies alone have grossed over $3.5 bn just at the box office, I'm thinking they're off w their calculations, or else she needs new representation.  they probably haven't tried to estimate recently. she's probably closer to $1.5 bn already.

Rosewood is used to make wands.. In Goblet of Fire, Mr. Olivander mentioned Fleur Delacour's wand being made of
rosewood.

I think Harry's is willow.

Does that answer your question?

I shouldn't have revealed that I'm an HP fan.. I'll probably get ripped for it.  ;D

ollivander is spelled w two 'l's.  your spelling's been going to shit lately ("dribble" for "drivel").  lay off the ganja.

I haven't smoked all day! Just shitty spelling on my part.  >:(

I'm getting ready to smoke now. My old bowl shattered, so I have to use this little metal pipe with a screen that I cut out from my mother's tea strainer. Stuff is harsh, but hits hard and fast.
